Ok, thanks Mike,

I didn't think there was a way to password protect just the message rules,
but thought I would ask.

We'll have to go to plan "B".

Thanks,

Ed

No. If she can get into the identity, she can change the message rules.

If the issue is that they are sharing a single mail account and want to
keep there mail separate, the better way is to get separate mail account
for each. If their ISP doesn't offer truly separate accounts, then look
into something such as one of them using a gmail account which allows free
POP3 access.

I'm trying to help a friend set up his Outlook Express (that's a big
mistake to begin with).

Anyway, he has a daughter that is a bit 'challenged' and has deleted some
of his emails by mistake. I would like to set up separate identities
with different Message Rules. This would allow emails to be delivered to
his identity and hers to her identity. Although we do want her to have
access to Outlook Express, my concern is that she will eventually tamper
with the Message Rules and defeat the entire plan.

Is there some method of putting a password on the Message Rules so that
they can not be changed?

Thanks for your thoughts.

Ed
